1. If Dantes
had not used these aliases, the men he wished to take revenge on would have
known who he was. If they knew that Dante’s had escaped prison, they likely
would have either hid form or dealt with him. Even if they hadn't done these
things, it would have certainly made it much harder for Dante’s to exact his
revenge. Additionally, the mysteriousness surrounding him would have not been
there, and he would not have been so popular. His aliases also allowed him to
work with other groups of people who he otherwise could not have, such as
bandits and sailors. With these changes to the plot, had Dantes not taken up
his aliases, most of the story would not have happened.
2. In the earlier stages of his plan to
have his revenge, Dantes remains cold and unfeeling towards his enemies.
However, he begins to feel remorse towards them later on. This interferes with
his mission, as he starts to doubt his motives, and even allows Albert to live
when Mercedes begs him to. He realizes that his remorse is getting in the way
of his revenge. He curses himself for having such emotions, as he made the
resolution to dedicate his life to gaining his vengeance.
